Deep dives into software architecture, cloud infrastructure, and scalable system design.
AI coding agents are rewriting software faster than any human team could. Cursor, Windsurf, Claude Code, Gemini CLI — they ship features in minutes. But they also run shell commands, call MCP tools, and modify files with the same speed and less judgment than a human developer.
Anthropic just did something nobody expected. They built a model so good at finding security vulnerabilities that they're scared to release it publicly.
I've been building software for over 20 years. And I'll be honest — when the term "AI agent" started flooding my LinkedIn feed in 2023, I rolled my eyes. It felt like a rebranding of chatbots with better PR. Little could I have predicted its impact.
I run an AI security company. I'm supposed to tell you AI risk is manageable — that with the right governance framework and a good dashboard, you'll sleep fine.
I don't believe that anymore.
This post is about the files on your Mac that MCP servers can access — the ones most developers don't know are exposed — and what you can do about it.
